    1. Re: [BKM] BUCKS Digest, Vol 4, Issue 101
    2. Hi all,? ? First question: the 1700's parish called Lee - where was it?? ? Now the goodie question. I am confused by the Judge family of Bucks and thought someone here is going to be smart enough to give me an educated guess.? ? In the 1500's I have?Judges in Addington and Padbury that appear to be one family.I think one of them got married in Edgcott, but Edgcott is pretty far from Addington.?? ? Judges b.1500's made marriages in Padbury, Edgcott, Waddesdon, Twyford, Ludgershall, Whaddon, Stowe, Adstock, and Whaddon. That is quite a range, but I don't find accompanying baptisms in most of those?locations to indicate?settled families.? ? These villages radiate from Padbury and Addington, where I find the oldest Judges. And Padbury is one of the most densely Judge populated villages in Bucks early on, while it looks like branches grow in other villages in the 1600's, reaching even farther from Padbury as time goes on. Nearly every famiiy group used the names William and Richard, with Thomas mixed in for spice. I can't find a migration pattern - or any pattern at all.? ? So, here is where I need an educated guess. In the 1550-1600 period, would?the members of one?family consistently go so far afield from Padbury to find a spouse? Keeping in mind markets, tinkers, and assorted travelers, I don't know.? ? Thanks for any guesses,? Ann Marr?
